BIG FUN with the way this Grande Dame pulls out all the stops for the patrons on Oscars night! Complementary limousine arrival, red carpet with paparazzi, Roan Jivers interview, bubbles on entry into this classic building, and more!
The recent interior renovations are a really...More

We were lucky to participate in the morning free tour of the theatre that is offered monthly. I would highly recommend trying to sign up for it. The manager of the theater gives the one hour tour that starts on Friday at 11:15AM. The group...More

Atmospheric theaters were created in the 1920s before the "talkies" took over Hollywood's output. In the South in particular, they also had another amazing invention that offered a reprieve from the swelter of summer, air conditioning! This theater has EVERYTHING in spades! Ambiance, history, great...More

My wife and I have attended several performances at the Tampa Theater. It's always a treat to visit this carefully restored old theater and see the "old way" of going to the movies, like our parents and grandparents did. We've been to Oscar-nominated short film...More

This theatre is simply awesome. It was listed by the BBC as one of the 10 most beautiful movie cinemas in the world and certainly is the most beautiful I have ever been to. It was built in 1926 as one of America’s most elaborate...More

Thank goodness Tampa has decided to preserve and maintain this wonderful piece of history, where we went to enjoy some classic American films. The architecture is breathtaking, everything restored and maintained beautifully.

A few friends and I took the tour of the Tampa theater and may I say, for the historic value alone, it was an amazing treat. I thoroughly recommend taking the tour and enjoying the stories from the Tampa theater’s entertainment past.

Being old, I remember when theaters were single features and much more elaborate than now. But to see this restoration, was quite an experience. Bring the kids to show them how things were done in the "olde days". The ticket price for the movie was...More

We'll second the suggestion of Eddie & Sam's... it's a staff favorite here at Tampa Theatre. Same goes for Taco Bus on Franklin Street, just a few blocks south of us. Any way you slice it (pizza pun intended), downtown Tampa has really boomed in the past few years as far as independent, locally owned restaurants, and there are plenty to choose from within a few blocks of Tampa Theatre. You can check out a bunch of other options at the Theatre's online restaurant guide. I'm sorry I can't post the exact link, according to TripAdvisor rules, but visit TampaTheatre online, and go under VISIT to see our DOWNTOWN GUIDE.
